Property Description
Some homes are built to live in. Others are built to make you feel alive. This is one you'll never want to leave. Nestled in the peaceful countryside of Galena Township, this one-of-a-kind retreat is more than a home, it's an experience. Currently operating as a fully turnkey, income-producing Airbnb, this property comes completely furnished, allowing you to seamlessly continue its successful short-term rental business from day one or make it your own private sanctuary. Every corner of this artistic retreat reflects the creativity and craftsmanship of its owner, with handcrafted details thoughtfully woven throughout both the home and the grounds. Step inside to high ceilings, an updated kitchen, a beautifully renovated bath, and a warm, inviting one bedroom layout. Two charming loft sleeping areas provide additional accommodations, making this cozy retreat capable of hosting more guests than you'd expect. Outside, over 3 private acres invite you to slow down and reconnect. Wander peaceful trails beneath the trees, listen to the gentle creek winding through the property, and wake each morning to birdsong. Watch deer wander through the woods, wild turkeys cross the landscape, and frogs serenade the evening. This is the kind of place where you can truly exhale. Perfectly positioned for both relaxation and adventure, you're approximately 15 minutes from New Buffalo and the shores of Lake Michigan, about 30 minutes from Southwest Michigan's renowned wine country, and roughly an hour to an hour and a half from downtown Chicago, making it an ideal weekend escape or full-time haven. Whether you're looking for an investment that immediately generates income or a peaceful retreat to call your own, this extraordinary property offers the best of both worlds.
